The Truth Is...

 

 

I have a secret

 I have a secret that can only

Be told

 By the one who holds it

Over my head

 

I have a secret

 I have a secret because of

Something that should not have been

 Witnessed

Or spoken or otherwise

 

I have a secret

 I have a secret that both scares me

and arouses me

 Because even if I didn't want

To share it, I have no choice

 

I have a secret

 I have a secret to someone else

Because I want them to feel

Connected

 To me

 

I have a secret

 That my secret isn't really

A secret

At

all

I like when a poem has parallel structure, as in this one. I'm a huge fan of poetry, and it's for this reason. You poets have such strong style and abstract logic behind your work. Nice write.
